[edit] Waldo Cabrera
Waldo Cabrera is 41 years old and was born in the Dominican Republic. At the age of 8, He immigrated to the Bronx. Waldo helped his parents make ends meet by mopping and sweeping the six story building they lived in. This was one way his parents instilled in him strong work ethics and high moral values.
This experience stayed with him, encouraging him to strive and excel at all he does, first as president of his high school and then as a Cum Laude graduate of Syracuse University. Upon graduating from Syracuse University with honors, Waldo started a career in Advertising and was the Vice President of 4Kids Home Video. In the mid 90's, He moved to Brentwood where he met his wife Sandy. They married in 1999 and now have a 4 year-old son named Max.
